    2. Meanwhile to make fresh strawberry sauce, in blender container, puree strawberries until smooth. Sweeten to taste with sugar, cover and set aside.
    3. Split shortcakes horizontally. Divide sauce among six dessert plates; top each with a shortcake bottom, 1/4 cup sliced strawberries and 1/4 cup whipped cream. Cover with shortcake tops. Spoon remaining strawberries and whipped cream over shortcakes, dividing equally. Garnish with mint sprigs if desired.
    4. Yield: 6 servings
